September 30--Goodbye Month #9

Morality is doing what is right, no matter what you are told. Religion is doing what you are told, no matter what is right.  --H. L. Mencken

    I mentioned in my September 27 post that I no longer have a need for religion. Mencken's quote explains my sentiment perfectly. And it is the "religion" (here you could substitute the word "cult") of Trump that is ruining our country, because the party in power has completely lost any sense of morality. 
    Here are my closing thoughts on September, my least favorite month, and other than the above, I won't even touch upon the horror that is our government. There was one very sad event within a friend's family, but otherwise, the month was not too bad and passed quickly. Having had a steroid shot in my upper right arm has reduced my pain level nearly to zero, a huge improvement. My stamina is improving and I am able to play pickleball more often. I made it through my husband's 10-day vacation just fine. The Cubs made the playoffs. My grandson had his first birthday. I purchased a new Chromebook with a bigger screen and a numeric keypad (a thing that truly excites this nerd). I'm gradually tackling some garden projects. I've made plans for a game night to celebrate my upcoming big-0 birthday. 
    Ready for October!
